Remembering Lata Didi’s Keno Kichhu Katha Balo Na Lyrics English (Meaning)
Keno Kichu Kotha Bolo Na?
Why won’t you say a single word?
Shudhu Chokhe Chokhe Cheye
With just a look from your eyes,
Ja Kichu Chawar Amar Nile Shobi Cheye
all that I ever desired, you took simply with your gaze.
E Ki Chholona!
Is this a mirage?
Keno Kichu Kotha Bolo Na?
Why don’t you say anything?
Shudhu Chokhe Chokhe Cheye
With just a look from your eyes,
Ja Kichu Chawar Amar Nile Shobi Cheye
With one glance from your eyes, everything I craved was stolen by your stare.
E Ki Chholona!
Is this an illusion?
Keno Kichu Kotha Bolo Na?
Why don’t you say anything?
Joto Dur Dur Thako Shudhu Je Cheye Thako
No matter how far you are, you just continue to stare.
Joto Dur Dur Thako Shudhu Je Cheye Thako
From any distance, you remain gazing only at me.
Se Chaway Amaro Akash Amar Batash Bhore Rakho
With that gaze, you fill my sky and you fill my air.
E Ki Chholona E Ki Chholona!
What is this illusion, what is this deception?
Keno Kichu Kotha Bolo Na?
Why don’t you say anything?
Keno Kichu Kotha Bolo Na?
Why won’t you say a single word?
Na Bole Ja Jao Bole Bhashahina Bhashar Bedona
The things you say without speaking carry the pain of a wordless language.
Keno Kichu Kotha Bolo Na?
Why won’t you say a single word?
Joto Sur Laage Gao Se Banshi Prane Bajaao
All the melodies you can, you play them on a flute within my soul.
Se Surer Suray Modir Holo Je Mon Kothay Udhao
I am intoxicated by the wine of that music, my mind is lost somewhere.
E Ki Chholona E Ki Chholona!
What is this illusion, what is this deception?
Keno Kichu Kotha Bolo Na?
Why won’t you say anything?
Shudhu Chokhe Chokhe Cheye
With just a look from your eyes,
Ja Kichu Chawar Amar Nile Shobi Cheye
all that I ever desired, you took simply with your gaze.
E Ki Chholona!
Is this an illusion?
Keno Kichu Kotha Bolo Na?
Why don’t you say anything?
